Hi guys!

Happy New Year! :) I hope everyone will get a good start to the new year.

In this week's video, I make new molds for the tramp ramp hatches using a 3D scanner. This is a project I've had a lot of fun with, and I'm excited to attempt the vacuum infusion of the new hatches in the next couple of weeks. It's been a long time since I vacuum-infused the rudder shells for Athena's new rudder, so it'll be fun to try that again :)

Soon, it's time for me to head back to Florida. I should be back on January 3rd. Unfortunately, after taking a couple of weeks off, we're now back to being real-time with the videos. That is stressful and not optimal for progress. Luckily, I have a plan, so it's just a matter of rolling up my sleeves and getting back to work :) Until then, I get to enjoy another few days with Ava here in Michigan :)

Thank you so much for all your support in 2024! Have a fantastic weekend and beginning to 2025 :)

In this video I 3D scan and make molds for new tramp ramp hatches based on the old damaged hatches.
